The Chart of the Day belongs to Immunomedics (IMMU). I found the biomedical stock by using Barchart to sort today’s Top Stocks to Own list first for the highest Weighted, then again for technical buy signals of 80% or more. Since the Trend Spotter signaled a buy on 8/22 the stock gained 9.61%.

Immunomedics Inc. is a New Jersey-based biopharmaceutical company focused on the development of monoclonal, antibody-based products for the targeted treatment of cancer, autoimmune and other serious diseases. They have developed a number of advanced proprietary technologies that allow us to create humanized antibodies that can be used either alone in unlabeled or `naked` form, or conjugated with radioactive isotopes, chemotherapeutics or toxins, in each case to create highly targeted agents. Using these technologies, the company have built a pipeline of therapeutic product candidates that utilize several different mechanisms of action. They have recently licensed its lead product candidate, epratuzumab, to UCB, S.A. for the treatment of all autoimmune disease indications worldwide.
